My top 5 impact transfer WRs before the second transfer portal window opens.

  • Quarterbacks
  • Running Backs

1. Caullin Lacy, Louisville (from South Alabama)

— Lacy had 91 receptions for 1,316 yards and seven touchdowns with the Jaguars and could easily be WR1 for Louisville.

Sep 2, 2023; New Orleans, Louisiana, USA; South Alabama Jaguars wide receiver Caullin Lacy (4) leaps over Tulane Green Wave safety Bailey Despanie (32) and defensive back Lance Robinson (7) during the first half at Yulman Stadium.

2. Evan Stewart, Oregon (from Texas A&M)

— Adding Stewart to a positional group with returning receivers Tez Johnson and Traeshon Holden, who combined for 123 receptions, 1,634 yards, and 16 touchdowns, will make Oregon a nightmare to prepare for.

Sep 30, 2023; Arlington, Texas, USA; Texas A&M Aggies wide receiver Evan Stewart (1) returns a punt for a touchdown against the Arkansas Razorbacks during the second half at AT&T Stadium.

3. Isaiah Bond, Texas (from Alabama)

— Bond led Alabama last season with 48 receptions and helps replace some key losses for the Longhorns.
